+/**
+ * Shell sort implementation — a generalization of insertion sort that allows the exchange of
+ * elements that are far apart.
+ *
+ * <p>Plain insertion sort only ever compares and swaps neighbouring elements, so an element that
+ * belongs near the front but starts near the back has to crawl there one step at a time. Shell sort
+ * speeds this up by first sorting elements that are a fixed distance ("gap") apart, then repeatedly
+ * shrinking the gap until it reaches 1. The large-gap passes move badly-placed elements most of the
+ * way to their final position in big jumps, so by the time we run the final gap-1 pass (an ordinary
+ * insertion sort) the array is "almost sorted" and that cheap pass has very little work left to do.
+ *
+ * <p>This implementation uses the original Shell gap sequence (n/2, n/4, ..., 1). Smarter gap
+ * sequences (e.g. Hibbard, Sedgewick) give better worst-case bounds.
+ *
+ * <p>Time Complexity: O(n^2) worst case with the Shell sequence, roughly O(n^1.5) on average, and
+ * O(n log n) best case (already sorted). Space Complexity: O(1) — sorts in place.
+ *
